Friends - Sunday, October 24, 2004
I talked with Priscilla on the phone about a myriad of things, and one of the things she asked made me really think. Her question to me was, "What is your favorite color?" I think she was trying to tell me that you can be friends with somebody for a really long time, but you still might not know them well. There are so many things I don't know about my friends, from the seemingly trivial details like their favorite color to the big things, like their goals for life. I know that my friends are smart, they can sing like Mariah Carey, they program better than I do, they collect insane amounts of drama, and they enjoy breeding E. coli colonies in petri dishes. But how well do I know them as people?
I think it's overdue that I start getting to know who my friends really are, not just what they are. During dinner, I asked Sophonias about his goals for life and for college- what's his post-college roadmap look like, and what he hopes to get out of college besides an education.
